How far do you go??

Owner of a S4 B5 Avant 2.7 running 352@fly.
As nearly every driver what's more power Im' in that statistic.
Car goes great and have no issues but want more BHP. Waiting for my X1 intake kit to be delivered from 034 Motorsport simply to run abit cooler and the ram factor. What else will I need to reah 450bhp safeley or as safe as possible.
K04 25 26 turbos
CX or PACE FMIC
Do injectors and pumps have to be uprated and also the FPR?
I have little knowledge in the Audi world but am not a novice when biulding fast cars.
Advice more than anything else chaps.

Power isn't everything though, my scoobs currently running a safe 360bhp and in the wet it can be a handful, in the dry the only week link in the chain are tyres, so get decent rubber before upping the power, I ran Michelin pilot sports and they were great, Pirelli pzero neros on there at the mo and can't wait to get them off..

MAF sensor is 85mm which I beleive is the same size as the RS4.
Injectors will be changed
CX intercooler looks the boy
I have RS4 manilfolds (or so I'm told)
Oilcooler?? where is this situated and what is a suitable upgrade.
Thinking of getting a wideband like I had before, inovate seem a user friendly item plus they look good, ran one of these in my Corsa turbo and it saved my engine when the FPR was packing up.
So all in all what would be a ball park figure to upgrade and will also need cash for a remap at MRC.

Mocal oil cooler would be ideal. If you go FMIC then you would locate the oil cooler in one of the spaces vacated by your old SMIC's

A figure is hard to pin down, but i'd think to get 450+ you would be looking at £5k+ easily. But it would be well worth it, my rs4 used to have 470 and that was a quick car, now its got a little more and its a stupidly quick car lol

Yep, i had the pleasure of a quick shot of Eddies car pre animal incarnation, and it was rapid then, what sort of figure do you reckon its pushing now mate???

Keep me in mind BT and I know where your coming from HEKTOR. For all my turbo's and repairs I have used the TURBO CENTRE UK (in Leeds I think) and rang him last night for a price and they're £820 eash fo £1640 for the pair which seems ok to me, haven't shopped round yet but they have always been good to me in the past.

Also Andy at the turbo centre uk told me of a hybrid he done to his s4 which was called K03s and basically take the comp and turbine housing off to get machined out then put a new core assembly off a 1.8 t anniversary and jobs done.

They will be refurb units, so not brand new. But provided they offer a decent warranty, you can't argue with that price.
I'd be looking for £1200 for mine. Had a £700+vat refurb last year and I've done about 2500 miles since fitting them in August.

I had a problem with one of the intake pipes and the hose that connects to the y-pipe. Loba have since remanufactured the intake pipe for my car and it should be here on monday. Its been a pain not having the car, but loba (simon) has been amazing in dealing with it, i cant ask for anything more than that. Im looking forward to monday more than ever!
